Uncover the why, what, and how of research-informed reading instruction!

Fifty award-winning literacy educators contribute more than thirty-five “engagements”—student-focused, classroom-tested instructional and assessment actions—to strengthen the reader in every child, while reinforcing one essential fact: reading is about constructing meaning. The book is organized in a four-part framework: Knowing Reading, Knowing Readers, Engaging Readers, and Knowing the Language to Use.

Each engagement includes:

A brief introduction
Why?—Benefits of the engagement
Who?—Students that would benefit most from the engagement
How?—Materials and instructions for effective implementation
Closure/Stepping Back—Concluding the engagement
How’s It Going? Informal Assessment
